Quarter-Century Offshore Winds from SSM/I and WRF in the North Sea and South China Sea [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2016 We study the wind climate and its long-term variability in the North Sea and South China Sea, areas relevant for offshore wind energy development, using satellite-based wind data, because very few reliable long-term in-situ sea surface wind observations ...

Atmospheric forcing of sea ice anomalies in the Ross Sea polynya region [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 We investigate the impacts of strong wind events on the sea ice concentration within the Ross Sea polynya (RSP), which may have consequences on sea ice formation.

Co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2013 An attempt has been made to understand the co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season. Wave data were collected in different years during non-monsoon season (off Goa during May 2005, off Ratnagiri during ...

A Marine Radar Wind Sensor [PDF]
, 2007 A new method for retrieving the wind vector from radar-image sequences is presented. This method, called WiRAR, uses a marine X-band radar to analyze the backscatter of the ocean surface in space and time with respect to surface winds.

Seasonal Variability of Waves Within the Indonesian Seas and Its Relation With the Monsoon Wind
Ilmu Kelautan, 2021 The previous studies have simulated the variability of the wave within the Indonesian seas which showed that the variability of wave follows the seasonal pattern. However, their analysis only consider the influence of local wind forcings.
